This is a pre-configured full installation of RayStorm for PC that allows the game to be playable without needing to install it from the disc or the CD-ROM drive for music to play. All you have to do is extract the game folder to a convenient location on the computer that does NOT exceed 40 characters in length (e.g. C:\Games\RayStorm). I do not know why this is a problem for this game but it is and do not know of a way to fix it. Various third-party wrappers and a CD-check bypass was applied to allow the game to be playable on modern Windows with minimal set-up. Configuration tool is included. Use Alt+Enter to toggle between Windowed and Fake Fullscreen modes. This PC port is based off the PlayStation version, not the arcade version.
• Replaced XInput Plus with Xidi for better XInput and hotplugging support.
